A Pick Me Up - Day 61

Being outside is a huge pick me up for me during this "quarantine" time. Outside is my therapy. Before we could head to Mom and Dad's to get our outdoor therapy, I had to do my online teaching. I had 4 sweet kiddos this morning. Then I took a short nap before we headed down to play and work outside. We couldn't believe all the flooding between our house and theirs from yesterday's crazy rain.

Today was just what I needed. We got down to Grandma and Papa's house around noon. We always bring our lunch, so we can eat outside or in the open garage. We #physicaldistance as much as we can. I am so fortunate to still be able to see them during this crazy time. We worked on planting flowers, mowing the yard, filling the bird feeders, and cleaning out flower beds. We have done a lot of "spring" cleaning outside this year.

Ella helped clean up and set up the fairy garden. Brayden moved some plants and mowed. I went about getting the flowers planted in the pots and Micah helped with the bird feeders. Emerson bounced around and helped everyone while also getting in a little 4 wheeler riding time. We are looking forward to finishing planting the garden. We also have another flower bed to put back together. Then the big one the kids want to finish is to get the pool open.

We headed home for dinner and Ella and I had a plan to make fruit pizza. My mom and I used to make fruit pizza all the time. This time Ella made it from scratch all on her own. It was beautiful and delicious; an amazing combination.
